I was trying to figure out why vim-oscyank isn't working in vim on a remote cloud instance and I think it's because that it isn't compiled with clipboard support. It works fine on nvim on the same instance and configuration.

% vim --version | grep clipboard
-clipboard         +jumplist          +popupwin          +user_commands
+ex_extra          -mouse_jsbterm     -sun_workshop      -xterm_clipboard

Is there anything I can do to make it work (apart from recompiling vim or getting it from another source)?

Okay, I've realised that the vim-X11 package on RHEL-based distros gives vimx which can be aliased to vim and includes +clipboard.

However, I cannot get vim-oscyank to work with it while the came config works fine on neovim even though apparently it's not really needed. I can see that the key maps are present but nothing happens when I use them (no statusline output).
